Derwent Woodturners

Derwent Woodturning Club has roughly forty members and is based here at Sharpe’s Pottery Museum. The skill levels in the club range from absolute beginners to those with decades of experience. These woodturning pieces for sale are all produced by members using a range of techniques and materials. Though members use electrically powered lathes, the work is handcrafted and each item made is unique!

Made in Swad

Made in Swad illustrations are a celebration of Swadlincote and South Derbyshire heritage as well as our flourishing future. The illustrations are available to buy as postcards, A4 prints, and tea towels and make great gifts for local folks, souvenirs for holidaymakers, or can rekindle fond memories of Swadlincote for ex-pats.

The Ticknall Potter

Born in Derbyshire and inspired by the hills, history and communities. Maria’s art pottery is created by using a pottery wheel to ‘throw’ vases, bowls, plates and mugs using stoneware and porcelain clays. Mixing her own glazes ensures the colours are unique and vibrant. Maria also creates her own handmade Tower poppies.
